About

Kim Wilde, British pop and new wave voice since 1981 with enduring vinyl appeal.

17 vinyl records across pop and new wave genres — including limited editions and rare pressings.

Kim Wilde's catalog primarily bridges pop and new wave styles, with notable synth-pop and rock elements. Since her debut with "Kids in America" in 1981—an immediate success topping UK charts and breaking into the US Billboard Hot 100—Wilde has maintained a steady output of studio albums and compilations available on vinyl. The collection includes original 1980s releases, 21st-century recordings, and special editions such as limited pressings and picture discs.

Key albums like "Another Step" (1986) and "Love Moves" (1990) highlight the transitional phases of her sound, from electronic pop to more mature synth-pop balladry. Recent vinyl pressings like "Closer" (2025) and "Here Come The Aliens" (2018) reflect her continued appeal.
